60 seconds of inspiration with Professor Clodagh O’Gorman, Chair of Paediatrics, Graduate Entry Medical School, University of Limerick, Consultant Paediatrician, University Hospital Limerick.

Childhood obesity in Ireland and in the developed world is one of the biggest challenges we face. Our researchers are working to understand the phenomenon to inform treatment and better public awareness of the issue for children. Obesity impacts a child’s future – ultimately it puts their long-term health as risk.

Nearly a third of children aged 2 to 15 are overweight or obese and the evidence shows that bad habits stay with them well into adulthood.

Michael Sibert has been to look at how schools, the government and academics are trying to tackle the problem.

Obesity is a complex neurometabolic disease and we need to treat it like we treat any other complex disease. For years we’ve been implementing lifestyle and behavior change in terms of treating obesity. But what we know now is that often times patients can lose some degree of weight but the difficulty is in maintaining that weight reduction and the reason it’s so difficult to maintain that weight reduction is because our bodies are smart and they fight back. They don’t want us to maintain that weight reduction and the therapies that we have found that actually work for that are things like anti-obesity medications and surgery and the reason for that is because those interventions target disease, pathophysiology disease mechanisms. Obesity is a disease whereby our body tries to defend an elevated, defended fat mass set point. Our body has this concerted interest in carrying an appropriate amount of fuel. It doesn’t want to carry too little fuel or energy, which it carries as fat, and it doesn’t want to carry too much energy or fuel. It wants to carry just the right amount. And we call that the defended fat mass set point. Our body evolved to carry an appropriate amount of fuel. But what’s happened in our current obesogenic environment that’s filled with highly palatable, delicious food, lack of sleep, increased stress, lack of physical activity, all these things on a population level have driven up that defended fat mass set point. Now, how is this set point set and how does our body regulate how much fat or how much energy we store? There are these hormones in our body that are stimulated when we eat food. We call them nutrient stimulated hormones and what they do is that they inform our brain about our energy state and this is akin to what our body does with many other functions and so these hormones inform our brain about how much fat or how much energy we are carrying and then our brain sets that defended fat mass set point. So we call these new medications nutrient stimulated hormone based therapies. So when we treat patients with these anti-obesity medications and they’re targeting receptors in the brain, they reregulate or reset that defended fat mass set point and a byproduct of that is that our patients lose weight. Our patients have so unfairly and tragically faced stigma, bias, shame, blame for disease that is not their fault. It’s biology. We need to have a reframing of lifestyle changes of nutritious diet and physical activity. Those are critical for health. They’re critical for obesity prevention. But once we develop the neurometabolic disease of obesity, once our patients develop this disease, they need treatments that will target those disease mechanisms.

Dr. Stephen O’Rahilly provides a biomedical perspective of obesity, and evaluates which genes could potentially shift the balance towards obesity.

Easy access to nutrients has contributed to the increase in obesity in the human population. But, what is obesity and why isn’t everybody fat? Dr. Stephen O’Rahilly provides a biomedical perspective of obesity, and evaluates which genes could potentially shift the balance towards obesity. As he explains, one becomes obese when the balance between energy intake and energy spent is shifted. Surprisingly, mutations that lead to obesity in humans aren’t in genes involved in metabolism and energy storage, but failure in satiety signals in the brain that result in people eating too much. The excess of energy intake over energy expenditure leads to obesity.

What is the consequence of obesity in human health? Physically, obesity can result in lower mobility and sleeping disorders. But, in humans, the link between obesity and metabolic diseases isn’t straightforward. For example, not everyone that’s obese becomes insulin resistant. As O’Rahilly explains, the probability of an obese individual to have a metabolic disease is linked to the capacity of adipose tissue to store the extra fat. Mutations that decrease fat storage in adipose tissue increase the chance of metabolic diseases, like insulin resistance, even when the person is not obese.

Speaker Biography:
Dr. Stephen O’Rahilly is a professor of Clinical Biochemistry and Medicine and Head of the Department of Clinical Biochemistry at the University of Cambridge where he also directs the MRC Metabolic Diseases Unit in the Wellcome-MRC Institute of Metabolic Science. He qualified in Medicine from University College Dublin, and continued his post-graduate training at Oxford University and Harvard Medical School. In 1991, O’Rahilly joined the faculty at Cambridge University where he studies human metabolic and endocrine diseases. O’Rahilly is known for his work in identifying novel extreme human metabolic phenotypes, and identifying genes important in metabolic function and dysfunction.

For his scientific contributions, O’Rahilly was elected as a fellow of the Academy of Medical Sciences (1999), and the Royal Society (2003). He also became a Foreign Associate of the National Academy of Sciences (2011), was knighted in the 2013 Birthday Honors for services to medical research and was the 2019 Banting Medal Recipient for Scientific Achievement of the American Diabetes Association.

An obesity scheme in Rotherham which was successful in helping people lose weight has has received criticism for going private after losing their NHS funding.

Rotherham is one of the country’s obesity hotspots where two in every three adults is classified as either overweight or heavier.

Despite the scale of the obesity problem, NHS treatment for the most serious patients is no longer available in the South Yorkshire town.

Obesity
————-
Weight Status Body Mass Index (BMI)
Underweight less than 18.5
Normal or Healthy Weight 18.5–24.9
Overweight greater than or equal to 25–29.9
Class I Obesity 30–34.9
Class II Obesity 35–39.9
Class III Obesity greater than or equal to 40
Morbid obesity is diagnosed when the patients meet greater than or equal to 1 of the following criteria:
greater than or equal to100 pounds over the ideal body weight
BMI greater than or equal to 40
BMI greater than or equal to 35 and health conditions related to obesity (e.g., hypertension, diabetes)

Treatment
—————–
First-line: lifestyle modifications
Dietary changes: calorie restriction, healthy foods (e.g., fruit/vegetables, protein-rich, unsaturated fats, sodium-restricted)
Physical activity: minimum of 30 minutes moderate exercise per day (2.5 hours per week) , which increases insulin sensitivity, lowers blood pressure, and promotes weight loss
Medical therapy: treat hypertension (e.g., ACE inhibitors), diabetes mellitus, and dyslipidemia (e.g., with statins)
Bariatric surgery: if BMI ≥ 40 and no success with dietary and lifestyle changes
Sleeve gastrectomy (most common): large part of the greater curvature is removed, so that the remaining stomach resembles a sleeve
Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (2nd most common): Roux-en-Y

Miley Cyrus has sparked controversy for featuring plus-size model Angelina Duplisea in the music video for her single ‘Mother’s Daughter’. Critics have suggested that Angelina’s appearance in the video is glorifying obesity. Angelina debates with Piers and former glamour model Chloe Goodman about whether or not the video sends an unhealthy message or if it’s good for a different body type to be represented.
